Chapter 2: Lola
Nyx's POV
"Hoy, tulala ka nanaman" biglang saad ni Susie, "Ano ba? May iniisip yung tao eh" agad niya kong binalingan ng mapang-asar na tingin.
"Sino? Si sir Drake ba?" bulong niya, alam kasi namin tutuksuin nanaman ako ni tita saka tito
"I-iba kaya" ano ba namang boses 'to, "Sus, bakit ka nauutal? Tama ako 'no?", ngumisi siya. Baliw na naman 'to. Hindi nalang ako umimik baka sabihin guilty ako
Ang iniisip ko lang naman kasi ay ang napag-usapan namin ni sir. Ewan ko ba kung bakit niya sinabi yun.
-Flashback-
"What do you think about you getting promoted?", gulat akong napalingon sa kanya. "Ano po, sir?", tanong ko.
"Sorry, I don't repeat what I was saying", masungit na sabi nito. Muntik na akong mapairap don, buti napigilan ko sarili ko.
"Sir, parang masyado pa pong maaga para sa ganyan", sabi ko nalang.
Ayoko namang sungitan si sir baka matanggal ako. "Are you refusing my offer?", tanong niya.
Ayoko namang sungitan si sir baka matanggal ako. "Are you refusing my offer?", tanong niya. "Ah.. siguro?", hindi ako sigurado
"Okay then, no promotion for you. Sayang, mas mataas pa naman ang sahod 'don" agad akong napalingon sakaniya
"Yes, you heard it right. You can be our new manager, kaso ayaw mo" muli akong nakapag-isip isip, "2x your salary if you accept it" I sighed
"If you accept being the manager, will you still leave Bloody Moonlight?" agad akong umiling
"I didn't say anything about leaving Bloody Moonlight. I was just shocked that you already trust me and wants me to be a manager of your restaurant" he chuckled
I didn't know he can laugh, madalas kasi cold siya. Buti 'di siya giniginaw sa sarili niya, "Maganda ang pagta-trabaho mo dito, it's a simple thank you" kumunot ang noo ko
"You're the one who helped me, diba dapat ako yung mag-thank you?" I asked, he sat on his swivel chair. "Just don't leave Bloody Moonlight unless I say so, I'm okay with that" kaya ko ba 'yon? Baka makaalis lang ako dito kapag binato ko sakaniya yung swivel chair na inuupuan niya
"You have to do it right? It's an exchange, I caught the one who snatch your bag and got your bag back" napapikit ako at bumuntong hininga. "Sige po, I'll do my best to do it"
-End of Flashback-
At parang binlack mail ako ni sir. Ginamit pa talaga ang pagtulong sa 'kin sa snatcher na yun para 'di ako umalis sa restaurant nila. "Nyx! Pinapauwi na tayo ni sir", bulong ni Susie. "Ano?", tanong ko. Tumingin ako sa harap at nakita kong nakatingin si sir sa akin. Nanlaki ang mata ko nang maintindihan ang sinabi ni Susie.
"Sige. Halika na", mabilis kong hinatak si Susie palabas ng restaurant. "Ba't ganyan naman asal mo ngayon? Kanina tulala ka pa ta's manghihila ka bigla..", sabi nito kaya natawa ako. "Sorry naman.. Medyo nagmamadali ako, hindi ba halata?", natatawang tanong ko.
"Oo na. Sige na, umuwi na tayo", si Susie naman ang humila sa akin.

Drake's POV
"Sir." I heard someone call me. "Yeah?" I looked at him. "Magmi-meeting na po ba?", he asked. "Wait a second." I went outside to breathe. Why would she decline my offer? I said i'll double her salary.
"Anong iniisip mo, Drake?", Manager Cora asked. "Nothing."
"Simula nung dumating ang dalawang babae na yun, nagkaganyan ka na. Anong problema?", she asked. She's like a mother to me, she helped me get along with the others in this restaurant and she treats me like her own child. And she's always concerned about me.
